Peter Darling

De: Austin Chant

Narrado por: Mark B. Knight

Ten years ago, Peter Pan left Neverland to grow up, leaving behind his adolescent dreams of boyhood and resigning himself to life as Wendy Darling. Growing up, however, has only made him realize how inescapable his identity as a man is.

But when he returns to Neverland, everything has changed: the Lost Boys have become men, and the war games they once played are now real and deadly. Even more shocking is the attraction Peter never knew he could feel for his old rival, Captain Hook—and the realization that he no longer knows which of them is the real villain.

An Enchanting Story

I read Peter Darling before listening to the audio book version as I often do with stories I want to revisit again. I found it just as enchanting as it was in print. Hearing my favorite passages voiced gave me the same goosebumps the second time around. My issue with audio books is, as I enjoy reading aloud, I have a set pacing and inflection for certain passages that the narrator doesn't always interpret as I would. This can draw me out of the story as I debate with myself about the correct delivery. However, not being an expert on London dialects or pirates, let alone fairies, I will defer to this narrator and all in all I enjoyed his performance.

THIS BOOKS IS A MUST

As a queer individual I absolutely LOVED this book. What a interesting and fantastical twist on the story and characters we know and love.

Seriously Fantastic

At first, I was wary of the age difference and how they would go from enemies to lovers, but it's actually perfectly and beautifully done. Chant's trans rep is also 100000% spot on, and it felt so good to be represented correctly. Then, of course, the plot which was fantastic and kept me thoroughly engaged. I love this and already bought a hardcopy of it. This is a book I know I'll read and listen to a million times over.

All I knew about this book was it was a Peter Pan retelling

And Oh My God it’s so much more and so amazing. The narrator is perfect. The story telling is heart breaking/ warming. I couldn’t ask for more.

A touching adventure

This was a lovely journey back into a childhood place, with all the complexities of an adult heart. Nice writing and performance.
